Objective To explore the risk factors affecting prognosis of invasive fungal infection .Methods The clinical data of 208 hospitalized patients diagnosed with invasive fungal infection in Sun Yat-sen memorial hospital from 2007 to 2011 were reviewed . The factors affecting prognosis were determined by univariate and logistic regression analysis .Results The fatality rate of adult inpa-tient with invasive fungal infection was 21%.The univariate analysis showed that difference of seven indicators was significant between the survive group and death group:advanced age (over 60 years old), hospitalization time,fasting plasma glucose level, hypoalbumin-emia, using more than two kinds of broad spectrum antibiotic for more than two weeks , kinds of invasive operations , and multiple organ dysfunction syndrome ( MODS) .Binary logistic regression showed that the difference of five indicators was significant between the two groups:advanced age (over 60 years old), hypoalbuminemia, using more than two kinds of broad spectrum antibiotic for more than two weeks, kinds of invasive operations , and multiple organ dysfunction syndrome .Conclusions The indicators such as advanced age (over 60 years old), hypoalbuminemia, the use of more than two kinds of broad spectrum antibiotic for more than two weeks , kinds of invasive operations , and multiple organ dysfunction syndrome might be independent risk factors of death in patients with invasive fungal infection.Early medical intervention should be made in clinical work , in order to reduce fatality rate of patients with invasive fungal in-fection.

Objective To investigate the relationship between interleukin-17 (IL-17) and vitiligo.Methods Totally,32 vitiligo patients and 30 healthy human controls were enrolled in this study.Blood samples were collected from all the subjects,and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was performed to determine the plasma levels of IL-17.The relationship of plasma IL-17 levels with disease stage,clinical course and lesion area was assessed.Results The plasma levels of IL-17 were significantly higher in the patients with progressive and stable vitiligo than in the healthy controls (both P ＜ 0.05),and higher in the patients with progressive vitiligo than in those with stable vitiligo (P ＜ 0.05).Moreover,the plasma levels of IL-17 were positively correlated with the area of vitiligo lesions (r =0.456,P ＜ 0.05),but unrelated to the clinical course of vitiligo (r =0.239,P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion IL-17 may play a certain role in the occurrence and development of vitiligo.

Objective To investigate the clinical effect of preoperative nutritional treatment and perioperative nutrition support for the patients with esophageal cancer.Methods According to the digital table,90 patients with esophageal cancer were divided into the control group(15 cases),preoperative nutrition group(25 cases),postoperation nutrition group(25 cases)and preoperative nutrition + postoperation nutrition group(25 cases).The postoperative quality of life and the complications were compared.Results Postoperative quality of life in the preoperative nutrition group,postoperation nutrition group and preoperative nutrition + postoperation nutrition group were all better than that in the control group(t =14.76,15.13,17.87,all P ＜ 0.05).The incidence rate of postoperative complications in patients received nutritional intervention significantly decreased than in the control group(x2 =9.17,12.13,19.18,all P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion The preoperative nutrition and postoperation nutrition can improve the postoperative quality of life and reduce the incidence rate of the complications.

After a description of the characteristics of novelty assessment of literature on information technology involving different subjects, multiple new technologies and deep knowledge, the strategies were elaborated for it.

Neurolymphomatosis(NL) is characterized by lymphomatous infiltration of the peripheral nervous system. We report a case of neurolymphomatosis(NL) which was confirmed by sural nerve biopsy. Sural nerve specimen from a 49-year-old female patient with weakness of limbs was examined with routine histochemical and immunohistochemistry staining, in which the first antibodies against CD3, CD20, CD45, CD45RO and CD68 were used. Numerous T-lymphoma cells invaded in the adipose tissue of epineurium of sural nerve. The nerve biopsy showed marked axonal degeneration of myelinated fibers. The clinical and histopathologic findings confirmed the diagnosis of neurolymphomatosis.

Objective To evaluate the effects of nursing intervention on the beliefs and behavior of early detection of breast cancer. Methods Four communities in Shanghai were selected by convenient sampling process. Then these four communities were randomly assigned to intervention group and control group. One hundred and eighty women who met the criteria of this study were selected from each group by convenient sampling process.Altogether 739 women were recruited. In intervention group,a one-year nursing intervention guided by health belief model was implemented,such as health education seminars,telephone follow in the third,sixth,and ninth months,and flyers of breast health care in the sixth month. Control group only received conventional education. Results After intervention women became aware of breast cancer (B=0.210,P＜0.01),perceived more benefits from attending early breast cancer detection (B=0.105,P＜0.01),and less difficulties in attending the activities of early detection of breast cancer (B=-0.086,P＜0.05). The number of women who performed breast self-examination once per month increased and more women received clinical breast examination (OR=3.0946) and mammogram after intervention (OR=2.746). Conclusion The nursing intervention,guided by health belief model,is helpful to improve women's beliefs and behaviors of breast cancer detection.
